Police say Addison father left note in murder-suicide of family

We know how an Addison family died on Wednesday but police aren't releasing the details of why.

Police say Thomas Mangiantini, 49, wrote a note prior to killing his wife, 2 children and then himself.

The family was found shot to death in their home on 225 South Wisconsin after Elizabeth Mangiantini, 46, called 911. Police say dispatchers could hear gunshots in the background.

The DuPage County Coroner's office says autopsies show Mangiantini shot his 12-year-old son Angelo several times in the head. He shot his 8-year-old son Thomas once in the head. He then shot his wife in the head and himself in the mouth.

Everyone in the house was dead when police responded to the 911 call at 6:30 a.m.

Police reportedly found a note that Mangiantini left behind. The contents of the note have not been made public. Various newspapers report  Elizabeth Mangiantini had recently lost her job and Thomas had his hours cut at work. However, neighbors and friends tell reporters there was nothing to indicate any unusual problems within the family.
